Spring Is the New Summer

Pure joy when it is 70 degrees in mid-March.  Mike's wife can then bring him to Indian Landing School playground.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEE!!!  Notice her puppy shaped flower arrangement

My new favorite corporate logo.  It's for Moonshine BBQ and I can't wait to go here for our 2nd anniversary!

Thank you daylight savings.  Someday, I will run for office and my platform will be solely advocating for daylight savings time to be year round.  And, why not move it ahead two hours?  

Fooooood...

The Adventures of Petey and _____

Photobucket
Megan on the "buttflower" at Cobbles Elementary School.  We went over to there with Tachel last weekend and all of us agreed that many kids must get injured on this playground.  And the thing Megan is riding is a physics experiment gone mad!


Photobucket
Judy as Vanna White showing off the copy machine.  Rumors of this copier ran rampant throughout the organization.  Unfortunately, this is just a loaner at this point.  We still get to keep the old Toshiba with over a million copies.  What will the future hold?


Photobucket
Dock and Neville.  Neville has a clean bill of health and a family.  YEAH!  Dock has neither.  BOO!


Photobucket
If only this wasn't blurry.  Maybe I'll have to do something like this to the ol' Nissan Versa.

The newest member of the Lollypop family is Petey!  He's been adopted by Dee (and apparently the rest of the staff) and he could be any breed you could imagine.  Maybe even part Panda...

This is not a real dog.  It's just a stuffed animal...


FINAL WEEK! I'm helping organize the run/walk at Barktober Fest, which is this SATURDAY!  Lots of food, activities, and stuff if you want to come out to Egypt Park (next to Lollypop Farm).  And, if you like to donate to help homeless and abused animals, please visit: http://lollypop.kintera.org/barktoberfest/mike

That's a Lot of Bull...

Photobucket
I bet your job doesn't have a giant fiberglass cow (unless you're a co-worker of mine and then you do).  This guy use to be in front of a restaurant, but was donated to Lollypop Farm in the 70s, when we were in Henrietta.  He made the move to Fairport/Egypt and now guards the Farm.  His most notorious trip occurred when Fairport High School seniors stole him and put him on top of the school.  He is very securely bolted to the ground now...


Photobucket 
Llamas.  Farm animals are available for adoption too.


Photobucket
With all the rain and mud these days, this is one happy pig


Photobucket
You may ask "When did Egon Schiele create a masterpiece portrait of Mike," but this is in fact an original Tachel.  It can be viewed at the new gallery space at Lollypop being installed in my cube.


Photobucket
Yikes.  Tachel was being a generous artist with a face like this.  P.S. I put ugly pictures of myself up here too


Photobucket
Megan chillin' on the slide on her old turf at Indian Landing Elementary School.  The genesis of her acting career and her famous line "Calling all mothers!  Calling all mothers!"  followed by a dancing routine involving the song Yakety Yak by the Coasters.

KITTEN SEASON IS OFFICIALLY OPEN!  Rochester has a cat overpopulation problem and we need to find new homes for these guys and get as many as possible spayed or neutered.  So, here's a link for information and how to help:

The Land of Lincoln, Birthdays, and Deer


It was Christyn's b-day and we had a HUGE celebration at work!






Rockin' out!


This is "Dirt Cake" made of ground up Oreos by my anonymous boss lady


The birthday girl.


Yep, this will end up on Twitterbook...


The public pool at the forest preserve calling out to us saying "Come on kids! I know it's not that warm yet, but I can still be fun!"


Old washed out bridge in the preserve


In this picture, there are six deer. See if you can find them!




Bambi being scared off by me VERY quietly breaking every stick in the woods sneaking up on it.


My "wife of the future."


Unfortunate for her, I'm her "husband of the future" and I just broke the tree swing...


Megan pondering if there are trolls under the bridge...

PS - The cancelation of the Southside Irish Parade gets a big thumbs down from me. Chicago needs it's own little Mardi Gras to celebrate the end of the bitter winter.

Choose Your Own Title: This Week is The Turning Point - o

eSo, here we go. I decided that I have been lazy with my pictures lately. Therefore, I have posted more this time for your viewing pleasure. Enjoy.


This is a dancing egg from the side of a semi. I thought he was hilarious. Unfortunately, I didn't realize he was going to be on the back of the trailer too. On the back, it said "Rear end me and the yoke is on you" with the egg looking like a psycho killer. I will have to find this truck again.


On the swingset before Amanda's nondate-date. She's went out with a GR guy that sounds an awful lot alike a guy someone else I know is dating. Not getting in the middle of that.


These ladies at Mo'z dance like they are Charlie Brown. I love them...


Andrea, Big Gay Bill, and myself. More Indie rock album covers.


Corey and April's wedding down at Lake Harbor Park.


Eleanor picking up a date.


NO MORE DANCING! TOO MUCH DANCING!

Things have really started to look up for me lately. I'm having a blast and really just figuring out what I want and will be doing. I have lots of things on the burner right now and I'm just hoping it doesn't explode in my face. In talking with TAD last night, I realized that I am on the right path and I just have to stay true to that.

So, this week begins the mass exodus of Muskegon. I have had three or so going away parties this week. Caleb, Alice, Colleen, Hasan, and more are all leaving me. So, I wish them luck and we'll have to get together sometime.

I'll be heading to Chicago on Thurday for my job interview. I'm a bit nervous about it, but it should go fine.

Hell, all is going well for me. How bad could it be? Jeez, even Lindy commented last night that I remind him of James Dean. Yes my friend, I am a Rebel Without a Cause. Somehow, that seems appropriate.
